The main product of Agro Industrial Santa Isabel S.A. de C.V. is green coffee beans. Agro Industrial Santa Isabel S.A. de C.V. possesses the certificate of Rainforest Alliance. Their mission is to sell more than coffee and they are promoting sustainable farming, traceability and trusting relations between the buyer and the farmer.
The company's coffee preparation methods are:
- Washed coffee: the traditional method where the coffee bean is soaked in water after depulping.
- Honey: this is a very environmentally technique since it does not use water. After the coffee is depulped it is taken directly to the solar dryer where it rests for 15-20 days depending on weather conditions.
- Natural: just like with the honey process, this process does not require water. The coffee is not depulped and it is taken directly to the solar dryer with the whole cherry. The coffee rests a minimum of 20 days in the dryer.
The customers so far have been food processing companies (roasters) and foreign importing companies.
The company is currently looking for a partner to start distribution of Honduras origin coffee in Finland and EU
